I'm a mean Mom.
I take away electronics.
I feel justified in doing so when said electronics seems to add to the antagonism and aggression that seems to run rampant in our home during down time.
I don't give a flying flip if kid did save up for a year just to buy his very own iPod Touch-- it's mine when you start biting everybody's head off.
This is what occurs after the initial shock (and withdrawal symptoms) subside...

| Playing Wii Karaoke |
 |
| After Wii Karaoke, some Wii fit on the board. See the two Wii controllers? |
 |
| Maybe a little XBox action when that's over...Looks like Halo is the game in queue |
 |
| XBox isn't complete without the Kinect... |
Nobody make any sudden movements! That's a Shrink-ray gun by his feet!
 |
| Surely you know who this is? |
 |
| Oh alright. Maybe this helps? |
 |
| For Pete's sake, it's Simon Lappin! |
Don't tell the kids that their sudden burst of creativity may have just nailed the lid shut on the electronic coffin.
